Here are the Tikkun ha Klali [Repair of Everything], the Psalms for Kabbalat Shabbat, the "Shir ha MaAlot" - "Songs of Ascents" and the Morning Blessings. Tikkun haKlali consists of Psalms 16, 32, 40, 41, 42, 59, 77, 90, 105, 137, 150. This series of Tehillim is called the "Great Remedy," and was identified by the great Rabbi Nachman, z"tzl.

Study versions of numerous Psalms, in Hebrew and English, verse by verse. This group includes the Tikkun Ha Klali series, [Psalms 16, 32, 41, 42, 59, 77, 90, 105, 137, and 150.], the Psalms for the days of the week [starting with Yom Rishon or "Sunday:" 24, 48, 82, 94:1 - 95:3, 81, 93 and 92] and various other seasonal or occasional Tehillim.

Here are several versions of Psalm 91, by which I was able to memorize it. I just listened to these on my iphone all day over and over, and the variety kept it from becoming "invisible" to my ears, kept me interested, and firmly embedded it in my cortex. Now I say it from memory a couple times a day: when I do my yoga in the morning, and when I'm falling asleep at night.

Here are selections from our Sunday morning davening. Some parts of the Sunday davening are read in English, and those sections are rendered here in Hebrew by Rafi alone. [I figure you can read the English on your own...] Also, in the interest of being thorough, I'm adding other parts that we don't read, such as the kavvanot for the tallit and tefillin, and the korbanos. This will be clarified as the notes become more detailed. Many sections of the service are preceded or followed by...
